[9dstpm]

There was a very good Lifetime movie that came on Sunday called "She's Too Young." It was about a 14 year old girl and her two friends who experiment with sex with older guys and they all wind up contracting syphillis (I don't know if I spelled that right) from these guys. It was kinda shocking to see how cavalier their attitudes were. One girl was like, "Oh, I had it but I got a shot so I'm all cured." But she goes right on having unprotected sex. I wanted to scream, "YOU IDIOT!!"

I read that same article in the paper about the infection rates of STD's of young people. It was scary. Even the kids I work with have this same cavalier attitude. "Oh, if I get it, I can get a shot or take some pills and I'll be OK." I wish I could take some of those kids to the AIDS hospice here and let them see firsthand that there are some things that Ajax can't get rid of, to borrow a phrase from Grandmama.
